If you own a JVC Everio video camera you will share in my frustration on this.
For some stupid reason, JVC decided to use a damn proprietary file type for their video files. .MOD
.MOD seems to be an MPEG2 format that nothing but iMovie can read and to make matters worse, the tools that came with the camera are windows only and by what I have read don’t even handle the files right.
Thankfully though, I have found hope in converting the stupid useless files in to something more useful and even compressing them for web use. Check out: http://www.squared5.com/ they have the answer that I have been looking for and its for Windows and Mac! I just used it and it works beautifully. I converted to .MP4 and posted it on my you tube account. You can check it out here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7gX_IHn0_4
The converter even has full H.264 compression support for .MP4 files!!! YAY!!
